"Live At The Filmore" to be released March 20
Posted: January 9, 2007
db will release his first-ever live concert DVD titled "LIVE AND LOUD AT THE FILLMORE" on March 20, 2007. The hi-definition DVD, directed by renowned London-based filmmaker Russell Thomas (www.doneanddusted.com), was shot in June 2006 at Denver's Fillmore Auditorium in front of a standing-room only crowd.
"Making a live DVD has been a dream of mine for a couple years now," said Bentley. "I really wanted to capture what we were doing in our live show at that particular moment, and I think Russell did an incredible job putting it on film. This is the ultimate accomplishment for me, the band and our fans."
The project features Bentley and his band performing some of his biggest hits, as well as some of the newer tracks from his critically acclaimed album LONG TRIP ALONE. Bonus footage takes fans behind the scenes of life on the road for the Phoenix-native, who toured over 300 days last year. Those familiar with Bentley's video for the smash hit single "Every Mile A Memory" got a sneak peak at what to expect from the DVD through a montage of clips pulled for the No. one video.
"The great thing is that Dierks wanted to do something different, and he really has an incredible creative eye," says Thomas. "We wanted a very contemporary feel but also a timeless piece that won't age too quickly. I tried to imagine what a good rock and roll band should look like and then tried to transfer some of that imagery onto country music and Dierks....gritty, grainy, gutsy."
2006 was the country music star's best year to date, professionally, with award nominations, a No. one album, three No. one hit singles and his first headlining tour. Bentley's latest release LONG TRIP ALONE topped Billboard's country albums chart this past October and has already been certified GOLD by the RIAA. The lead single "Every Mile a Memory" landed in the No. one spot on both country singles charts, making it the third No. one hit for the Phoenix-native this year, more than any other country artist. His current release "Long Trip Alone" is currently racing up the charts.
Bentley kicked off the Canadian leg of his Bud Light sponsored "Locked & Loaded" tour this week in Vancouver with label-mate Eric Church and Canadian artist Doc Walker.

Dierks Bentley Inspired by His Sweetheart

February 21, 2007 — Dierks Bentley is on the road hundreds of days a year, and that means he sometimes has to be apart from his wife, Cassidy, a situation that inspired him to co-write his current Top 20 single, "Long Trip Alone."
"The song started off about her, and about trying to reconnect," he tells Dial-Globe, "but then it kind of took on the meaning of just all the people that you have in your life. Without them it would be a very long trip on down here on Earth. But by the end of the song, it really became more of a prayer, and that's the way I hear it now. You'll hear it one way, but then if you keep listening to it, the meaning of the song is bigger than you may have initially perceived."
Cassidy does get to accompany Dierks on some of his tour dates. Dierks says it's easier for the couple to be on the same page since Cassidy has experienced "the joy of 16 hours on a tour bus riding home." Now when they return home, he says, they're "both exhausted" and she can understand why he just wants to "sit on the couch all day and night and not move."
